Original Post: September 18, 2023

So basically my bfs birthday is in a few days, so I was going to make him a photo album of my spicy/ nsfw pictures (mostly me in bra and panties and my boobs, no vagina pics).

Well I recently moved out of my parents house, and I haven’t changed the address on my google account. When I placed the order a few hours ago I completely forgot to change the address. I went to bed and as I was falling asleep I was jolted awake by the thought “holy shit I don’t think I changed the delivery address for the photos”.

I checked and sure enough I didn’t. I ordered from google photos and you can’t cancel the order or change the address if it’s been more than 2 hours since you placed it (it’s been about 5 already).

I’m so effed because my mom is very nosy and always goes through my mail and packages. Literally whenever I order stuff, if I don’t get to the mailbox first thing in the morning she opens it and then brings it to me. I’ve asked her to please stop doing this so many times but she never listens and always makes up some bs excuse. Now since I’m living in a different state there’s no way I’ll be able to get to it before her.

So yeah if I call her and ask her to send the package to me, she’s going to open it and see my nudes. If I ask her to please not open it because my nudes are in it, she’s going to scream at me for taking nudes (she’s paranoid of apple and google and other big tech companies and sees them as evil) and start ranting about how google is probably gonna upload my photos to sites and send them to my college and work and ruin my life or something along those lines. She’ll probably also tell my dad and I really don’t need him to find another reason to be disappointed in me lmao.

TLDR: I accidentally ordered my nudes to my very nosy parent’s house and it’s too late to cancel the delivery or change the address

Relevant Comments:

Maybe this will teach her not to open up someone else's mail?

"Yeah but idk if it’s gonna be worth all the fallout I’m about to get from it. Our relationship is already a bit rocky atm and she’s super against nudes/ sex, if she knows I take nudes of myself she’s going to kill me"

"She’s against premarital sex, which she knows I have and is not happy about, that’s one of the main reasons our relationship is so rocky atm"

Someone points out that based on OOP's previous posts, they may have a rocky relationship because OOP is dating someone in their mid 30s:

"Yeah that’s a big source of the rockiness right now. She likes him, he’s a great man and they get along well, but she’s still uncomfortable with the age gap and especially the fact that I’m living with him and we’re having premarital sex"

You're an adult, what do you have to be afraid of?

"I’m 21 but my parents are very overprotective and I grew up very sheltered. She still sees me as a child. I’m afraid of upsetting her because me moving out upset her a lot, and she doesn’t quite approve of my bf and the fact that I’m living with him now. She’ll probably guess that the nudes were supposed to be for him and then get even more mad. I’ve just been trying so hard to smooth over our relationship and this is gonna put a big dent in that"

As long as your mom isn't financing your life, you're good:

"She still pays for my insurance and my college :("

Many people suggest she email/call google customer support:

"I sent them an email already but I will try calling them too in the morning"

Could you ask your dad or siblings to handle it if they're in the house?

"My 3 siblings would definitely look and then roast me to no end (they’re all still obnoxious teenagers). My dad I’m not sure if he would look but if he would omg I would literally kms. If I told him not to look because they’re nudes in there, well I’d also rather kms than him know that I take nudes of myself and am sexual in any way.

Best course of action would be to tell my mom not to look because there’s nudes in there, but that’s going to make our already rocky relationship even more rocky because she’s completely against taking nudes and will be convinced that I’ve ruined my life and that google is going to blackmail me or something"

Would your siblings tell your parents though?

"I think they would tell my parents, they’re all very immature and I’m honestly worried that one of my brothers would show his friends or post them somewhere. Or use them as blackmail.

Maybe my sister would help me if I really begged her but even then it’s probably just better to have my mom get mad at me then her potentially find out from my sister and then get mad at me anyway"

Clarification- why are you ordering your nudes online?

"It’s just printed photos and I was gonna put them in a photo album and give it to my bf for his bday in a few days. It was just supposed to be a funny joke gift especially since he already has most of the pictures on his phone but it’s gone horribly wrong and I now regret everything lmao"

Don't take nude photos because they can be used against you:

"I know, I never thought I would ever take nudes until I met my current bf. He never pressured me for them or anything, I just love him so much and I want him to know how much I love him. Luckily I’m not stupid enough to put my face in any of them, and they’re all lingerie and titty pics, which I don’t consider to be as embarrassing as if it were my vagina or something"

Update Post 1: September 20, 2023 (2 days later)

Hey everyone, thank you so much for all the suggestions and feedback on my last post. I took many peoples advice and emailed both google and FedEx. I just got an email back from google saying that they had gotten my address change request and that they changed it! Thank god!

The problem is that FedEx hasn’t gotten back to me yet about the address change. However, they did just send me an email with the tracking number. It’s concerning me a bit because it says the photos are in transit and it still has my parents address listed.

I’m really hoping that google did actually change the address in time and that there was no miscommunication. Hopefully FedEx just hasn’t updated yet or something. I guess right now all I can really do is wait and see what happens. I’ll post an update in a couple days when HOPEFULLY I get my photos (and not my parents), if anyone still cares.

TLDR: A couple days ago I accidentally ordered my nudes to my nosy parents house. I emailed both google and FedEx, google replied saying they changed it, FedEx hasn’t and says the package is still going to my parents address.

Relevant Comment:

OOP clarifies why she wanted them printed in the first place:

"I wanted to make a photo album of my nudes for my bf as a funny gift for his bday. I don’t have a photo printer so I had to print them out elsewhere. I wasn’t about to walk into a store in person and have them print out my nudes, so I ordered them online to be printed and sent to me so that I don’t have to see whoever prints them lol"

Update Post 2: September 23, 2023 (3 days from last post)

Hey everyone, I just want to thank y’all again for all the advice and support, as well as all the smart and creative things people came up with to explain/ rationalize the situation to my parents in case the address change didn’t update in time and they got the photos. I guess I won’t have to use any of it though, because I just checked my mail and the photos are here! I’m sorry to disappoint some of y’all, I know it’s not the most dramatic or exciting ending, but god am I relieved it turned out this way!

I’m excited to finally give my bf his (now belated) birthday gift! Unfortunately the surprise was ruined, he already knows about the photos because he saw how stressed out I’ve been the last few days and asked about it so I had to tell him. He loved the gift idea and has been amazing about the whole situation, helping me contact FedEx and supporting/ comforting me about the possibility of my parents getting the photos instead. He joked that for my birthday he’s going to get me a colored photo printer so I can print more photos for him and not have to stress about it again haha.

TLDR: I got the photos, I can finally give my bf his birthday gift and rest easy knowing that my parents aren’t going to see my nudes and disown me!
